Biking & Walking in San Antonio

by Charles Marohn        www.strongtowns.org

From my Facebook feed where I have been posting photos of San Antonio:
Hey Chuck, Can you please tell me your thoughts about this sign. I would like to Share those thoughts with my friends on the following FB Groups. San Antonio Cycling Community, San Antonio Cycling, Alamo City Bicycle Crew, and Bicycle San Antonio.
You asked.
First, in any functional place, this sign is redundant. This is a handful of blocks from the core downtown of San Antonio. It is two blocks from UTSA. Why would there need to be a…

Bike Out Hunger Makes Stop in Brownwood, Raises Awareness and Funds for Hunger Relief

Written by Lisa Tipton        www.brownwoodnews.com


Forty cyclists rode through Brownwood on Wednesday, May 7, for the Fifth Annual Bike Out Hunger, raising money and awareness for hunger needs through the Texas Baptist Hunger Offering.
This year’s route reaches across more than 400 miles from Boerne to Wichita Falls. The team arrived in Brownwood on Wednesday afternoon.
Local riders include Pastor Rodney McGlothlin, Debbie McGlothlin, Jeremy Johnson and Greg Church.  Church stated that this was the longest ride he had ever participated in and although it was challenging, it was very enjoyable.
“It was fun, really tough in a couple of spots. Goldthwaite to Zephyr seemed like nothing but one big hill after another,” explained Church.  “ It was a challenging ride as it was the…

Dallas has a new bicycle coordinator who’s very eager to roll out the bike plan (from 2011)

By Robert Wilonsky        cityhallblog.dallasnews.com


The city of Dallas has been without a bicycle coordinator for almost a year following the June adios of Max Kalhammer, who came to Dallas from D.C. in 2009 and stayed around just long enough to help launch the 2011 Dallas Bike Plan and then grow frustrated with his inability to roll out more than a few miles of bike lanes, most in or around downtown. But fret not, cyclists, as the position has been filled.
One week ago today Ashley Haire strapped on her (completely unnecessary?) helmet and went to work at 1500 Marilla, following stints as a project manager with the Texas Department of Transportation and…

Warrior Ride founders visit George W. Bush for Texas ride for veterans

By Lee Hinnant, Staff Writer        stateportpilot.com


Warrior Ride founders Bob and Debra Racine of Oak Island are back from an unforgettable bicycling experience: the couple that works tirelessly to host injured veterans traveled to Prairie Chapel Ranch in Crawford, Texas, where they rode with former President George W. Bush.
The Racines joined the ex-president and 15 combat-injured veterans for W100, a 100-kilometer mountain biking event now in its fourth year. They bicycled with Bush and his staff for three days, and…

Lucky 11 Tips to Better Crit Racing

by Robert Wray with feedback from Heath Blackgrove        texasbikeracing.com

Want to bring your “A” game to your next crit? Many of the following tips are common sense, but you’d be surprised how many racers (experienced and rookies) don’t pay attention to the little details that make for a successful criterium—or burn lots of matches during the race that could be utilized at the end.
1. Arrive at the race early and pre-ride the course. Figure out the turns, wind direction, pot holes, gutters, cracks in the road, and best places to attack before the race starts. Most racers have a tendency to over-inflate their tires; try different pressures while training and at weeknight races. Harder isn’t always faster as it can increase rolling resistance. Lots of straights and sweeping turns = higher pressure. Technical with lots of turns = a little less. If the course is wet, ride a lower…

Bicycling West Texas

Brian and Sharon


We’ve cut back a little on our running as of lately. Mostly because we just need to do other things for our health besides running. Too much of anything can end up being not so good. The scenery here in our current location isn’t exactly our favorite. Especially this time of year when everyday seems to windy or hot, or both. We normally try to be in higher altitudes among the trees by this time of year. But, projects here will keep us stationary for another couple of months so we might as well make the best of it.
Biking has always been enjoyable for us. Even before we started traveling and living fulltime in our RV, we frequently rode our road bikes and mountain bikes both. We haven’t done much of either since we left the campground where we hosted in Washington state last summer. Some of the reason is, like I said, the scenery. The other…

I decided to go back and try some different stabilization techniques and put telemetry data to my City Park race back in 2012.

I included the full lap here, and it’s a short one at only 35 minutes or so.

That Demoralizing Wind

Bike Noob

I really enjoyed my ride to the air show several days ago, except for the stiff headwind I found myself fighting on the way back. I hate wind even worse than I hate hills. Actually, I don’t hate hills — I just don’t do very well with them. But the wind is another story.
Part of my problem with the wind is my size. People in my bike club, even riders much faster than me, love to draft me on group rides, because I do such a great job of shielding them from the…

Wendell 100

San Angelo Bicycle Association

Saturday, May 3, 2014 twenty two riders took the Wendell 100 challenge – a 100k group ride in San Angelo. With advertising simply by word of mouth and a few Facebook posts, the Wendell 100 doubled in size again this year. The route was definitely the toughest so far and included several rolling hills and 2 category 4 climbs. As you can imagine with 42 tires and tubes rolling for 3-4 hours, we had a few flats along the way. If you just did the math, you may be wondering why there were only 42 tires and 22 riders… that’s right, we had a tandem join the fun.
Don’t worry if you missed it. The riders have…

A Suit Designed for Biking to Work and Taking Meetings

By Belinda Lanks        www.businessweek.com


Biking to work in most U.S. cities presents a long list of roadblocks topped, at least outside Portland, by the lack of designated bike lanes and the risk of injury because of missing infrastructure. Then there are the fashion hazards involved. What’s comfortable to wear for cycling—think spandex shorts—isn’t appropriate for the office.
“The biggest common complaint [cyclists] have is that they have to change their clothes once they get to work,” says Vaughn Brown, whose San Francisco-based company, Parker Dusseau, attempts to address that bugaboo with the Commuter Suit, combining the look of a well-tailored two-piece with the stretch of workout clothes. The inspiration, says Brown, was to make “clothing that allowed me to be…
